  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS.

Question Plesk special DNS redirect entry possible?

Basic Pleskian
Hello dear Pleskians,

I have the following situation:

Server A -> running Plesk and being hidden primary DNS for all hostings
Server B -> running a server application

Now, on Server A, for a specific domain, I created a subdomain and changed the A record so that it points to the IP of Server B. Now when typing xx.servera.com one gets redirected to Server B.

But that's only part of what I want. What I need is that the subdomain is still accessible via xx.servera.com but every other request is sent to Server B which only hosts the server application, not the website, which shall reside on Server A.

Is that even possible by DNS or do I have to take a different approach. Any ideas?

Summary:

xx.servera.com should resolve to Server B BUT all web access requests should still be served by Server A running plesk.

Thanks!
